Telling the story of the Bikinians' displacement and the Seppo nuclear tests in their native atoll. It's a PBS documentary, and the director is evidently not really a commie, so I'm not sure how good it's going to be — and online reviews give me mixed signals, too — but I remember enjoying this documentary if nothing else, so I'd like to revisit it in the wake of Recent Events.

Oh, and another documentary I've been thinking about revisiting is The Death of Yugoslavia, a BBC documentary series with 6 episodes of 50 minutes each, whose interviews were actually used by the ICTY in war crimes prosecutions. But yeah, it's a BBC documentary, so I'm expecting some liberalism.

Oh, on this note, there's a documentary I've wanted to see for a long time called "The Weight of Chains" that's also about the fall of Yugoslavia and western actions that caused it. No idea if it's good or not.

If it brings up Western actions at all I'm willing to say it's probably good.

I think both of those I mentioned are on youtube

Hmm, the Wikipedia article for The Weight of Chains says that the movie basically presents the Srebrenica massacre as Bosniaks killing their own in order to justify NATO intervention in Serbia. This seems really wee-woo and distasteful to me.

Ah D: I haven't seen it honestly, and wasn't aware of that. Probably best to skip it in that case.
